Chapter 90 Doomgaze and The Planet of Death Part 1
The next day begins, in the city of Terra Falls the time is 11:30 a.m. and Zelda is at home upstairs in her bedroom wearing a pink t shirt, a pair of blue jeans and white socks, she also has her blonde hair up in a ponytail today. So there she is sitting at her computer desk typing up a paper, she takes a quick break to look at her pink wrist watch and says.
Zelda-Almost time to go.
She hears a knock on her bedroom door but before she has a chance to say anything, she hears.
Nakia-Hey Zelda, its me.
Zelda-Come in.
Nakia opens the door and walks in wearing a yellow tank top, black jean shorts and white sneakers. She sits down on Zelda's bed.
Zelda-Well this is a surprise.
Nakia-I know, I wanted to see what you are doing today.
Zelda-I have to leave at around 1:30 to go to the Teen Club down on riverside.
Nakia-Awww.
Zelda-Sorry.
Nakia-Ryan's waiting outside in his car looking fine as ever with his red hot sunglasses.
Zelda giggles and says.
Zelda-Oh that's cool.
Nakia-Yeah, very. But I was hoping you could come with us to the skating rink to have some fun.
Zelda-Oh that does sound like fun, I wish I could but another time?
Nakia-Gonna have to be. Same with Kimberly, Chet and Joey since they are busy today too. So why are you going to the Teen Club?
Zelda-I have to meet up with a girl I'm going to help.
Nakia-Oh I didn't know you volunteered there.
Zelda-Only temporarily, they actually asked me to.
Nakia-How did that happen?
Zelda-Our school secretary dropped my name down at the club and told them I am a very good student and yada yada yada im invited to volunteer and soon after they gave me information about.
She looks in her pink book bag, takes out a piece of paper looks at it and says.
Zelda-Paige Cranston.
Nakia-Oh ok, well that's good they think you are more than good enough to volunteer there.
Zelda-Yeah, well I just hope I am good enough.
Nakia-Oh don't even say that Zelda. You will do just fine.
Zelda-Thanks.
As they continue to talk something across the universe in deeper space begins to happen, strange looking dark lightning suddenly appears and flashes throughout the starry sky in a continuous rage, when the dark lightning seems to gain power, it strikes a certain planet which is the color of dark red but the planet appears to be devoid of all life that is until the dark lightning hit's a certain spot within the planet's ground.
And as soon as the dark lightning strikes the certain spot, the ground begins to erupt and after just a few seconds the spot bursts open unleashing a very large amount of what looks like black blood. The black blood begins to pool back onto the ground it was just erupting from and once the last of its entirety finishes spurting, the pool begins to slowly rise and take form of an unknown entity as a thunderous female voice is heard all around the planet and fiercely glowing dark red eyes are seen from the starry sky.
Bansheeva-Doomgaze, arise from your slumber for I Bansheeva who gives you the gift of life commands you to rise, rise, RISE! Use your powers to bring the Power Rangers to you, spill their blood taste it and then we shall see how worthy of opponents they be. Hahahahaha!
The fiercely glowing dark red eyes quickly disappear along with the thunderous laughter..
Back to Zelda and Nakia still in Zelda's bedroom talking.
Zelda-I am a little nervous.
Nakia-Well there is nothing unusual about that. You really don't know what you are getting into.
Zelda-I know. I just hope I am of some help to her.
Nakia-You will do fine. You are a very smart person and very caring too Zelda.
Zelda smiles and grabs her pink book bag after putting the piece of paper back into it.
Zelda-Thank you for the compliment.
Nakia-No thank you is needed, I only spoke the truth.
Zelda-Thank you again. But I was thinking about what is going to happen, I wonder if its right to just ignore Sinistar right now and just wait for her to attack us.
Nakia-You are wondering if its right? Zelda you know we don't do anything until we have to as Power Rangers.
Zelda-I know, but I feel so worried too about it all and think maybe we should go on the offense for once.
Nakia-You mean try to find her and destroy her?
Zelda-Yes.
Nakia-Well there is a problem with that.
Zelda-I know, we don't know exactly where she is.
Nakia-Right. And right now we should just enjoy our lives and live our lives without too much worry. Because we don't know what will happen next except for when whatever does happen we will fight as much as we can to get rid of the evil threat.
Zelda-I agree.
Back to the planet of death. The creature has finally arisen from the ground, it is tall, slender, nasty looking and very powerfully evil. To be specific, its body is completely black as if it were burned from the fires of hell. On the top of its oddly shaped head rests a hoard of long spiky looking black whips, its demonic face holds two hollow eyes with red as their dominant color, a crooked looking nose and a mouth filled with super razor sharp teeth that are quite long and are very able to rip anything to shreds, its torso is quite muscular and its arms are long with at the end of them rests its hands with long sharp claw like nails, its legs are of no exception to being long and with feet that hold claw like nails as well.
Zelda and Nakia walk out of Zelda's house and after she locks the door, they walk over to Ryan's car where he is sitting in the drivers seat of course wearing a black and red baseball cap on his head, a red muscle shirt and black shorts along with black and red sneakers. He notices and says.
Ryan-Hey girls.
They both walk up to the drivers side window and respond.
Zelda-Hey Ryan.
Nakia-Sorry we kept you waiting so long.
Ryan-That's ok, I figured you two would spend a little time gabbing with each other.
Nakia-Uh huh.
Ryan-So you both ready to go to the skating rink?
Zelda-Uhh not exactly.
Ryan-Huh?
Zelda-I wanted to ask you if you could drop me off at the Youth Center.
Ryan-Ok sure, but why?
Zelda is about to say but Nakia interrupts.
Nakia-She's volunteering there.
Ryan-Ok sure I can do that.
Zelda-Thanks. And we can go skating another time.
Ryan-Yep.
They both get into Ryan's car, Zelda in the backseat on the passengers side and Nakia in the front seat on the same side. Suddenly Nakia's communicator starts to beep and so she answers.
Nakia-Hey, what's up? Nakia here.
Nothing is heard except for static.
Nakia-Oooo! Noisy!
Zelda-That's weird.
Ryan-I'm sure its nothing, just a lot of interference.
Nakia-Yeah, but we don't get interference on our communicators.
Ryan-I guess we do now.
Nakia slightly scoffs and turns off her communicator.
Back on the planet of death where the evil Doomgaze is now fully formed, he opens his eyes with warp speed as he senses a Ranger's power is being used which happens to be Nakia responding on her communicator. He smiles a devilish smile as his eyes take on a life of their own so to speak in the way of producing a hellish glow which in turn allows a vision to be produced and seen within Doomgaze's mind. The vision is of Ryan, Nakia and Zelda in Ryan's car driving down the street from Zelda's house. He says.
Doomgaze-Three of them, three Power Rangers together! I sense them and I see them! I must capture at least those three now and do the same to the others later!
And so right from his own being, Doomgaze conjures a fierce storm of large red clouds red rain and red lightning that unleashes a huge tornado filled with darkness on his home planet and then he uses his power to send the dark storm along with its very strong and deadly tornado towards earth. He says impatiently.
Doomgaze-Hurry! We mustn't disappoint our Empress Bansheeva! Bring them to me my dark storm, bring them to their doom! Hahahahaha!
Within seconds the dark storm makes its way to earth and appears about 10 feet away from Ryan's car, the three friends exclaim because the sudden onset of the dark storm causes Ryan to slightly lose control of his car.
Ryan-What the hell!
Nakia-Oh damn it!
Zelda-What's going on!?
Ryan-Hold on girls, I've got to try not to crash!
He can try all he wants but they won't crash because the very powerful winds coming from the huge tornado pulls Ryan's car into its base where they are seen twirling around and around and around. They all are frightened and so they shout out.
Ryan-WHOA! THIS ISNT HAPPENING!
Nakia-OH MY GOODNESS!
Zelda-THIS IS INSANE!
The storm vanishes without a trace, it then reappears on the planet of death along with Ryan's car and who's inside of the car of course but then the storm disappears into the sky as if it were never there.
Frantic, the three look around the area and see nothing but a vast dark red land.
Zelda-Ok what just happened here?!
Nakia-If I knew the answer to that I would gladly tell you!
Ryan-This is crazy, just crazy, I bet Sinistar has something to do with this!
Nakia-Me too but we need to get out of here!
Ryan-How? Look around, we have no idea where we are let alone how to leave this area.
Nakia-Just start up the car and drive.
Zelda-Uh this doesn't look like earth.
Ryan-You're right.
Nakia-We're on another planet?
Ryan-Possibly. Everything looks red here. And.
He points up at the starry sky and continues on.
Ryan-Look up, there is no atmosphere.
Nakia and Zelda look to see the starry sky as well. Zelda says.
Zelda-Oh my goodness you're right. We can actually see space but we can breathe.
Ryan-I think our best bet is to teleport off of this planet and make our way back to earth.
Nakia-Agreed, but what about your car?
Ryan-I don't know, maybe we have enough power to take it along with us. I think us getting out of here alive is more important though.
Zelda-So do I.
Nakia-Yeah.
Ryan-Ok lets try. Lets use our communicators at the same time and teleport and maybe just maybe my car will come with us.
Nakia-Ok.
Zelda-Got it.
All three activate their communicators which in turn forms Ryan into a red glow, Nakia into a yellow glow and Zelda into a pink glow. Now the glowing three transforms into beams of light, red, yellow and pink that shoot upward out of the car and towards the starry sky but that is cut very short when an invisible force field surrounding the planet electrocutes the three beams and knocks the power out, so now Ryan, Nakia and Zelda start falling towards the ground of the planet at high speed at which Ryan commands.
Ryan-TRANSFORM NOW!
They produce their star morphers quick and one by one they say.
Zelda-PINK STARLIGHT RANGER POWER!
Ryan-RED STARLIGHT RANGER POWER!
Nakia-YELLOW STARLIGHT RANGER POWER!
With the commands said all three quickly transform into the Pink, Red and Yellow Star Force Power Rangers and once it is complete they are able to land gently on the ground without getting seriously hurt.
Yellow Ranger-Ohhhh man that was close!
Pink Ranger-Yeah, but we're still stuck here. And something won't let us leave.
Red Ranger-Then we'll just force it to let us go.
Yellow Ranger-We have to find what ever it is first.
Red Ranger-I don't think we'll have to find it, I think it will reveal itself to us very soon.
Suddenly skeletal hands and arms shoot up from the ground and ends up grabbing the Pink Ranger and the Yellow Ranger. The Red Ranger has leaped out of the way of being grabbed so the hand and arm that tried to get him retreats back into the ground. The two Rangers try to break free but it is proving to be really futile and so they are finding themselves being pulled downward.
Yellow Ranger-Ohhhh no!
Pink Ranger-Ughhghg!
Red Ranger-I'll blast those things to get you two free.
He takes out his star laser pistol and fires two blasts of strong energy that destroys the skeletal hands and arms and a second after accomplishing such a task a reddish black blur immediately rushes at him with the speed of light.
The Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger stand back up together only to find their leader has seemed to vanish into thin air, so they start running in the same direction as they had seen the reddish black blur rush away from them with the Red Ranger. Once they get close enough they see the Red Ranger and the monstrous creature Doomgaze, the Yellow Ranger exclaims.
Yellow Ranger-We have to help him!
Pink Ranger-Let's go!
Yellow Ranger-I'm with ya!
The Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger start racing towards Doomgaze, they leap up into the starry sky together and quickly go into cannonball flip mode but when they come out of that mode with their right legs extended to give Doomgaze a fierce double kick strike Doomgaze immediately materializes a strong force field that blocks their attempt and sends them flying backwards and they end up knocked down flat on their backs.
Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger-UGHHHH!
He then charges at the Red Ranger with the most fierceness and as soon as he is in close contact with him he unleashes a furious barrage of unbelievable attacks that don't really give the Red Ranger a chance to attack him or defend himself and so literally the attacks upon him almost tear the Red Ranger apart with the final blow aiming directly at the Red Ranger's chest. The Yellow Ranger and the Pink Ranger stand back up and rush towards the fight to try to help their comrade but his horrendous screams stops them in their tracks.
Frantic and a bit panicky, the Yellow Ranger gasps with ultimate fear as she sees her beloved lose his Red Ranger power and is knocked senselessly on the ground bleeding profusely.
She screams out.
Yellow Ranger-RYAN!
And the Pink Ranger says in a strong worried tone.
Pink Ranger-OH NO!
He tries to respond but the gaping wound in his chest doesn't give him the opportunity to do so, he starts to gag on his own gushing blood that finds its way out of his mouth. Doomgaze walks over to him and looks down at him with hungry eyes and a devilish grin as he says with obvious intent.
Doomgaze-Your blood Red Ranger, it smells so sweet just like the nectar I used to feed on centuries ago! Mmmmmm! Hahaha! Now I shall have a taste...
The Yellow Ranger shouts out.
Yellow Ranger-NO!
Now both the Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger materialize their weapons, wildcat daggers for yellow and strong panther whip for pink as they start running again trying to get close enough to the demonic beast, but he is too quick for them, he turns around with quick speed and uses his hair like whips to capture both of them making them drop their weapons and holding them in place up in the air and completely wrapping around their bodies. They protest and feel the tremendous squeezing their traps are inflicting on them.
Yellow Ranger-Uughhh! Stop it!
Pink Ranger-Ughghgh! Let us go!
Doomgaze-Oh no, I want you to watch and enjoy the feast I am about to have at your fallen leader's expense of course, hahaha!
Pink Ranger-Ughghgh! Leave him alone!
Yellow Ranger-When I get out of here you're...uughhh! Gonna be sorry!
Doomgaze-Hahahahaha! Pathetic whims from you humans, no wonder your kind is so weak!
Doomgaze looks back at Ryan who is still alive but barely, he quickly acts by extending his pitch black tongue out of his mouth and placing it right over Ryan's gravely wound. He starts to use his tongue to lap up some of the blood that is still coming out with no sign of stopping anytime soon, he savors, and his tongue is retracted back into his hideous mouth.
Doomgaze-Ahhhh Mmmmmmm YES! Delicious, so sweet! And now!
He quickly and I mean really quickly rushes to Ryan leans down over him and puts his entire demonic mouth on his wound therefore sucking on the pouring out blood while the Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger feel totally helpless still being held up in the air.
Ryan starts to gag even more and shiver, his body seems to be on its last leg so to speak and he feels the crushing feeling of death upon him.
When Doomgaze is finished he rises back up and looks down at Ryan as his eyes start to pulsate with a hellish like glow.
Doomgaze-Now, feel my gaze Red Ranger and feel your doom which will take your last breath!
The power from his eyes fire out fast and strike Ryan, he starts to shake violently and suddenly lose complete consciousness. Doomgaze laughs.
Doomgaze-Hahaha!
Back on earth as time moves on into the early evening hours Joey, Chet and Kimberly start worrying about Zelda, Nakia and Ryan, they meet up at the old weather station to see if Jeremy can actually find them. Joey who's wearing a blue tank top, navy blue shorts and white sneakers asks Jeremy.
Joey-Any luck?
Jeremy sitting at his computer in the main computer room and wearing a black t shirt and a pocket on its upper left side, a pair of blue jeans and white socks because he took off his shoes to get a little comfortable doesn't look up but he does respond.
Jeremy-I have been searching for their Ranger energy trails for almost three hours now and I have found absolutely nothing.
In a green muscle shirt, black jeans and blue and white sneakers, Chet asks.
Chet-Which means?
Jeremy-I don't think they are on earth.
Kimberly wearing a strapless pink halter top, blue jean shorts and white sneakers asks.
Kimberly-Well where else could they be?
Jeremy-I wish I knew.
Kimberly-Oh I am getting even more worried.
Joey-So am I.
Chet-We have got to try to find them.
Kimberly-What about Lightwing? Maybe he can help.
Joey-Where is that little bird?
Chet-Don't know. Guess he's out somewhere.
Kimberly-I'll get him here.
Kimberly clears her throat and shouts out into the air.
Kimberly-Lightwing! If you can hear me please come to us!
Suddenly in the middle of the room, a bright light materializes and it forms into a sphere once its settled, the sphere of light transforms into Lightwing. He stays afloat in the air without flapping his wings. Everyone looks at him. He speaks out.
Lightwing-Here I am.
Kimberly-Thank you for showing up fast.
Lightwing-No problem but what is wrong?
Joey-Ryan, Zelda and Nakia have gone missing.
Lightwing-Missing?
Kimberly-Yeah, we haven't heard from them all day.
Chet-And when we tried to contact them through our communicators we didn't get a response.
Kimberly-It was just static.
Jeremy-I don't think they are on earth anymore. I can't detect their Ranger energy trails anywhere on this planet.
Lightwing-Oh this is bad news, very bad news.
Kimberly looks at Joey and Chet with worried eyes. She then turns back to Lightwing and says.
Kimberly-I was hoping you wouldn't say that Lightwing.
Lightwing-I will use my powers to see if I can contact them or at least find them.
Chet-Oh good.
Joey-Yeah.
Lightwing closes his eyes and suddenly powerful waves of multicolored magic start emitting from his body, the waves extend all the way out into the universe.
Chet-Wow.
Joey-He's a strong little dude.
Chet-Glad all that sleeping he does is good for something.
They all chuckle and Jeremy states.
Jeremy-Lets hope he can find them.
Kimberly-If anybody can, Lightwing can.
